'CNN reporter raises concern about Kamala Harris' limited media presence affecting her campaign.

Did CNN reporter Sara Sidner question whether Vice President Kamala Harris was committing a political mistake by not holding a press conference or doing an interview since being named the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee?

In the "CNN News Central" show on Tuesday, Sidner questioned former Hillary Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook about Harris' limited media appearances.

She hasn't given a press conference in a few weeks. Is it a big mistake because she'll have to address tough questions about policies, including the border?

Harris has been occupied with selecting her vice president and preparing for the DNC, where she will reveal her vision for the country's future.

He stated that after the upcoming significant events, there would be ample opportunity to address inquiries and present policies during media interviews.

On Tuesday, Harris announced Walz as her running mate for the 2020 presidential election. In the past few weeks, Walz has rapidly risen to become a top contender for the VP position.

On Friday, the DNC declared that Harris had secured the 2024 presidential nomination after obtaining the support of a majority of pledged delegates at the upcoming Democrats' national convention.

In the past 16 days, she has been active on the campaign trail, delivered speeches at different events, and provided informal comments to reporters, but has not conducted a formal press conference or extensive interview.

Although she could have attended the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago, where former President Trump made headlines on Wednesday with a heated question-and-answer session, she failed to appear.

On Thursday, she spoke to reporters at Joint Base Andrews while Biden welcomed Americans released from Russia in a large prisoner exchange, including Evan Gershkovich of the Wall Street Journal.
